Curio

An ominous black rabbit idles in the distance behind some tufts of grass as drops of blood lead to it.

The Black Rabbit of Inlé.

NO NO NO YOU DON’T

GUYS LET ME PLEASE SPREAD THE GOSPEL OF FREE TAX USA

federal is free, state is $16, handles even my chaotic freelancer taxes just fine, same step-by-step “designed for normies” kind of interface as TurboTax but NOT EVIL

tell everyone you know

"I think the LLM is conscious" makes a lot more sense when you realize a lot of people don't grasp the interiority of other people.

If you view other people as a series of inputs and utilities, it makes a lot of sense that you would see inert code awaiting your prompt as conscious.

buy yourself a dragon drawing!! do it now using your phones

Idk. I think a world where monsterfuckers who value consent, folks into weird and hard kinks that aren't for me, folks with identities and fursonas that I don't always understand, and the uncertainty and compassion that all requires, is vastly preferable to whatever the hell is going on right now.

boss the fascism

A bluesky post from Kyra, artist behind chikin nuggit, laying out what is happening to their IP. Buzzfeed and its corporate shareholders are feeding chikn nuggit to the gen ai for training. The OP states they are strongly against this and are devastated.

⚠️
Chikin Nuggit is being fed to the AI machine. Kyra the OP and creator and voice of Chikin Nuggit, made a post that was deleted shortly after it went live.
Here is the screenshot of the original post:

kill the imposter syndrome in you head because not only is there someone out there doing it worse than you, they're also using chat gpt to do it

Anyways.

I'm forever humbled and grateful that people have been buying my assets and commissioning me.

Lately I've looked around and seen that I'm in the same space as people who work on video games. I'm still trying to figure out how I got here as a self taught artist. 😅

Thank you for your support. 💙

I also imagine like, a little cat friend chasing away unwanted thoughts like mice who snuck in from the Outside. I guess it's like a meditation with extra steps 🤷🏼‍♀️

Maybe it's weird or silly, but also I kind of think we could all benefit from a little more weird and silly, to be perfectly honest.

To help with sleep, I'm trying this thing called being Just A Little Guy. Like, my cats are just little guys, they don't know anything about the world outside of their walls. Blissful ignorance. So when I'm in bed, I try to be Just A Little Guy. It's the Just A Little Guy Zone. Little Guys Only.

if you're looking for art, please consider Han! though they've had a rough time healthwise recently, they've been phenomenal to work with and they just pour their absolute 150% into everything!! look at this comm they did for me!!!

I didn’t know Microslop was a thing until I saw headlines about Microsoft trying to ban Microslop on its Discord. Now I shall say Microslop a lot. That’s how it works.

It’s good when Microsoft, a company that likes genocide and environmental destruction, doesn’t like things.

This game is about to release into Early Access TODAY and I have a spare giveaway key. I'll post it into the replies for anyone to grab once this post reaches 500 reposts

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

My weirdest creation is almost old enough to drink.

A screenshot of Rachel Dratch from SNL. She's a white woman with short dark hair and blue eyes, and she's making an awkward expression that implies, "Sorry I have to tell you this and ruin your good time. But also I'm kind of not sorry about it." I've added a subtitle that reads, "That's AI."

an updated debbie downer sketch but it's friends showing her funny videos and she has to respond like this to every single one like this:

If you would like to boycott #HILLS because they are based in #Kansas, but your pet is on a prescription food:

#RoyalCanin most likely had an alternative Rx diet that matches your pets needs! You can get it on Chewy.com or at Petsmart if you get an Rx card through Banfield

Discuss it with your vet

found my biggest Hit Tweet from over half a decade ago before i was even a furry and my girlfriends told me to repost it because its good

IT HASN'T EVEN BEEN A WEEK!

cover of POUNDED BY THE REALIZATION THAT CHUCK TINGLES EROTIC WORKS ARE A SINGULAR PIECE OF ART THAT SKEWERS CONSERVATIVE FEARS OF MORAL DECAY BY REPURPOSING THEM AS THE PROMISE OF A SEX-POSITIVE UTOPIA featuring shirtless bud on the left and a chuck tingle book on the right they are trotting in a gallery of tinglers

the comments section after one of my posts about art goes viral

Reminder: under no circumstance should you give discord your ID.

It is gonna -suck- trying to set up alternatives, and this whole fiasco is going to damage communities, but you CANNOT give them your info

Having to type to an AI bot "I need a representative because the account holder is dead" and getting its chipper bullshit responses about how pleased it is to help you is dystopian, actually.

Seems to me like FreeTaxUsa is just an overall better way to file taxes than ever touching TurboTax.

I hate to use the "too good to be true" phrase but federal was free to file and state only cost $15.

Seemingly all of reddit touts it compared to TurboTax.

always so funny to me when people are like “how am I supposed to explain Gay to my kids?” my kid asks me way harder shit all the time. “why did they build the road this way? why are some people bad?” I don’t know. please ask me about Gay

BTW if you ever wanna commission an artist you don't have to have OC's or fandom characters- you can literally just be like "dang I'd like to have some more lesbian art exist" or "wow it would be real nice to see some trans rep in my culture" or "wouldn't a yellow centric painting look nice here"

being an artist is just decades of going "ugh I wish I knew how to draw" over and over again until you die
